Re: O/T The Secret Footballer
I think I am right in saying that the first book and original columns had some facts/details changed to protect his identity. The second book has a number of (ex)professional footballers contributing but is written from the perspective of a single player.

Re: O/T The Secret Footballer
yh i think you're right milo. it would be nice if TSF just made it clear if the book(s) were written by multiple players or just one. I don't think it would affect the secret identity of the player(s) much. But it's a very good read nonetheless.

With a bit of digging, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out who this is. A bit of a lad, around the fringes of the squad when Capello was appointed, but subsequently not picked. Can't remember Kitson's name ever being mentioned as an England international.

Re: O/T The Secret Footballer
There's a website called Who Is The Secret Footballer that collates all of the details from the columns/books.
I think that from the beginning he has put in other people's stories and changed details so that it was harder to identify him.

Re: O/T The Secret Footballer
There is a damming piece of evidence, TSF mentions in his book that as a kid he used to go to Denmark, and apparently Kitson was once asked in an interview whether he had been to said country on holiday, to which he replied he used to regularly go aa a kid.

If anyone has time I can recommend reading all these articles, they are each pretty interesting
http://www.theguardian.com/football/series/the-secret-footballer
Hearing him talk about agents and the managers and 'number 2 managers stepping up' is all very interesting, each one is worthy of a thread of its own really. His depression, his motivation, what a captain really does on and off the pitch, all very interesting.
